We were two newlyweds just trying to get knocked up at the old fertility clinic. We got our wish! Family of two turned family of four; our IVF miracles were born October 2011. It's a wild, blessed ride!

Keep on Trucking

We had another bleeder today. Yikes, why do these shots hurt so much? I mean, I've gotten more shots, injections, and IV's in my life than anyone I know...but holy bejeebus, these are no fun. Maybe it's the fact that they're in my belly. Maybe it's the amount of medicine. In any case, I'm just trying to keep on trucking over here.

Tomorrow morning is our first monitoring appointment. I'm nervous that they'll tell me my body isn't responding the right way. I'm nervous that I'm over-responding and will end up with OHSS (ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome) and won't be able to move forward with this cycle. I'm excited, but those nerves are so...ugh.

Gonna go hit the gym again for thirty glorious minutes of ... walking. My arms are still sore from our weight workout a couple days ago. I'll try for a little more of that. And then I'm making whole wheat turkey spaghetti tonight! YUM!

ps- thanks mom for the manicure tonight! It was good to see you, but not long enough!!!

About Me

I'm 28 years old. My incredible husband, B, is 29. We have a very entertaining cat, a beautiful home, and we work together at wonderfully stable jobs. It's a blessed life. Isn't it? Anything missing? ... We completed our first IVF cycle that ended in an ectopic scare and a miscarriage with a D&C. We're in our second round of IVF this time with ICSI. Transferred 2 blasts, 8 frosties...and we're pregnant with TWINS!!! Taking it One Day at a time...wishing and hoping!
